The chart below shows the percentage of households in owned and rented accommodation in England and Wales between 1918 and 2011. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.

The bar chart presents the data on the proportion of privately owned houses versus rented properties in England and Wales regions within almost the century date range starting from 1918 to 2011.

Overall

, the leased accommodations steadily decreased whilst the private properties volume demonstrated the opposite increase.

At the end

of the period, the percentage of rented houses slightly rose up

in contrast

the owned ones were dropped off. Notably, in the middle of the study range, there was a period when residential accessibility was the same for everyone.

Firstly

, at the beginning of the 20th century, about 80 % of the accommodations were let and only 20 % of dwellings had found their real owners. Over time, the situations gradually changed.

As a result

, we faced a completely opposite picture and a significant gap between those datasets in 2011. Having said that, only 35 % had the apartment leased and nearly 65 % became private property.

Secondly

, the household categories ratio had the same value of 50 % each. From 1966 to 1976 no shifts were noticed but it was a breaking point where the private property numbers started to grow, and the next decades illustrate the approximate 20 % augmented difference between categories.
